England at 9/4 to win the group look good value.
Bosnia at 6/1 to reach and then lose in the Quarters
Ghana 4/1 to reach last 16

So far I've done Germany v Argentina final at 12/1 and a 7 team accumulator of teams to qualify from their groups!

Will have a top scorer each way bet nearer the time

Thanks Greens :(
A quick query for any footy betting sages sur la board

I know you can bet each way on the winner of the World Cup, so basically a finalist, but I'd like to bet on predicting BOTH finalists (It was going to be Uruaguay/Brazil before the news of Suarez's injury)

So my query is, is there such a bet, like a reverse forecast for example, in footy?

Cheers

'Name the finalists' is the market and most firms cover it with Victor Chandler best at 66/1 for Uru/Bra final

Italy at 25/1

Excellent odds. Realistically it should be 10/1 maybe 12/1. Italians have a great coach, rock-solid defence, they are always very good tactically, they already played in Brazil and did very well in the Confederations Cup last year (they were better than Spain in the semi-final and only lost on penalties). Besides, for some of their players it's going to be the last World Cup, so they will have extra motivation, and the climate won't be such an obstacle for the Italians as for some other European teams. Just take a look at their squad:

GK: Gianluigi Buffon (Juventus), Salvatore Sirigu (Psg), Mattia Perin (Genoa) (Antonio Mirante ).

DEF: Giorgio Chiellini (Juventus), Andrea Barzagli (Juventus), Leonardo Bonucci (Juventus), Gabriel Paletta (Parma), Andrea Ranocchia (Inter), Christian Maggio (Napoli), Mattia De Sciglio (Milan), Ignazio Abate (Milan), Matteo Darmian (Torino), Manuel Pasqual (Fiorentina).

MID: Andrea Pirlo (Juventus), Daniele De Rossi (Roma), Riccardo Montolivo (Milan), Claudio Marchisio (Juventus), Thiago Motta (PSG), Marco Verratti (PSG), Antonio Candreva (Lazio), Romulo (Verona), Alberto Aquilani (Fiorentina), Marco Parolo (Parma).

ATT: Mario Balotelli (Milan), Antonio Cassano (Parma), Giuseppe Rossi (Fiorentina), Alessio Cerci (Torino), Ciro Immobile (Torino), Mattia Destro (Roma), Lorenzo Insigne (Napoli).

25/1? Yer havin' a laugh! £200 for Italy to win it.

It will be BRAZIL.

They are the favourites, but they want it too much, and football is a cruel, cruel game.

France each-way @ 25/1 is a bit of value.

Hugo Lloris in goal, Bacary Sagna, Laurent Koscielny, Mathieu Debuchy and Patrice Evra in defence, Franck Ribery, Yohan Cabaye, Samir Nasri and Paul Pogba with some midfield creativity plus Karim Benzema and Olivier Giroud to score some goals.

They're in arguably the softest group of all with Switzerland, Ecuador and Honduras. Avoid Argentina in the second round and there's only Germany who can realistically stop them before the final.

1998 they won the World Cup, 2006 they were beaten on penalties, so 2014 should see them go close.

I usually get on winner and top goalscorer. Argentina and Higuain are 33/1. Brazil and Hulk are 25/1.
